Hi,
My Desire has a rebooting problem...
If I play a cpu-intensive game like Angry Birds, it will always reboot after a while (gets hot and then reboots). Usually goes into a boot loop and I have to pull the battery.
I've noticed that if I do somewhat intensive tasks while the phone is charging, it also reboots - again this appears heat-related. again, boot loop, and battery pull.
I can put up with these reboots - b/c I can predict when they're going to happen. however,if anyone has ideas about how to prevent apps from overheating the cpu, please let me know...
However, sometimes it's just sitting on the desk in front of me and it reboots. this is much more of a pain. I have a LogCat reader installed but how do I pinpoint the apps causing the reboot in the log? Alternatively, I'm wondering if I leave it plugged into ADB, can that record the reason for a reboot?
Any advice is much appreciated.
I'm on AuraxTSense with an ext2 partition, in case that helps

Never shuts down. I always have to take battery out. It just stays on the 'shutting down...' menu with the blured background.
How do I fix it?
This is a stock, unbranded desire from 3UK.

I used to have this problem, it did eventually shut down after about 10 minutes though.
I gave up trying to fix it and now it no longer does it.
I used to have the same problem but it seames to have dissaprared. I can't say I have a solution but you might want to try this:
- power of your phone (take out battery if needed)
- power on the phone while holding the menu key; this will make your phone enter safe mode i.e. no third party apps will be available, just the system ones
- let it finish the whole startup sequence and then turn of your phone and restart normally again
Please report back if this solves the problem.
its usually linked to task managers,
Used to have it all the time, but since i dont use any task managers, everything is fine
Good luck

I've noticed I get this problem too sometimes. I think it has a lot to do with android trying to shut down all the runing processes. Do you have a non HTC or Google live wallpaper (especially a graphic intensive one) ? do you get a lot of e-mails/tweets/texts tun up while you are shutting down, do you plug your phone in to charge as you are shutting down. All these things leave the system with lots to do and I think that if the efect is the same as if you were trying to do too many things on an underpowered windows PC, there is a logjam of things all wanting to happen at the same time. This will eventually clear, but it take a while as noted above.
I found the solution on mine after a month of taking out the battery which is not good for the phone.so to make it shut down you have to turn off the WIFI before turning the phone off.i notice no more problem..so try that and let me know if it worked.
I got this problem as well and it WAS annoying (must took out battery!).
Here is THE solution:
Before shutting down:
- Turn OFF WiFi
- Go to settings -> SD-Card -> click UNMOUNT ...
Reboot.
That's it
In addition, I also download this FREE "SDRescan" app:

And did rescan BEFORE UNMOUNT
The time to boot is now shorten to few seconds max 1 minute or so.
This depending how many apps do you have installed!
I hate it when people ask questions, get suggestions on how to solve their problems but then NEVER give feedback.
its went away now and shut downs instantly, i just pressed shut down and went to sleep for the night, since then its fine.
Since installing CM7.1, my phone has been rebooting randomly -- like 5-8 times a week.
It usually happens when using Google Navigation (but not always); and usually when in the car and plugged in to charger (but not always.)
I thought it was CM, so switched to Sense (Swagged Out Stock) -- but it's still happening -- usually when I most need the navigation!
I tried the GPSCLRX thing; didn't help.
Could it be the car charger? The heat from being on the dashboard? Any way to narrow down the cause?
Thanks!
Is it a full boot or a quick boot? Gingerbread does a quick boot, where it just shows the bootanimation for a few seconds and then reentered the OS, when the system runs out of memory.

It's a full restart -- goes back to the white HTC screen!
Does your phone get hot at all? How many apps do you have running in the background? Phone's usually restart if they run out of memory, get too hot, run out of battery (which I assume isn't the case for you), or have a software error. Checking the temp and the background processes on your phone can help eliminate a few causes and let us know which is the most likely culprit.
I've had this problem before when my phone gets hot. Also more frequently happening when charging and running navigation. This happened a lot when running CM. I changed to deck and it doesn't happen too often now. Not sure if it was coincidental.
So yesterday my m8 suddenly started lagging, the whole time no matter what I do (reboot, power down for an hour, format internal memory, reflash rom).
It worked fine after charging overnight but now it's slow all the time again. It's not responsive at all, feels like 1fps and 100ms input lag, all animations are slowed down, sometimes input takes a few seconds to register (feels like a laggy kindle).
And like I said, it just suddenly started, haven't installed any apps in weeks.
Weird thing is, tasks run normally in the background, like talking on the phone or listening to music etc.
Anything I can do besides throw this phone away?
I have a similar problem.Can anyone help?Maybe it was the wine hboot?
I have been using fulmics for a long time now. I live somewhere where the temperature is always something around 17-25 degrees on summer and never had an overheating problem. Now, I'm on holiday somewhere hotter (canary islands) and the 30-ish temperatures are causing my phone to reboot if i take a couple of pictures or if I open apps like pokemon go. I think this has something g to do with heat because back at the hotel, I don't have these issues at all. Even when i perform the same tasks at night, the phone does not reboot.
Now, I can't remember if I chose the stock or the the thermal throttle values upon installation but I'd like to ask, which would be the best option to avoid this issue and also, any other advice you could give in order to mitigate this issue. I asked on the fulmics thread over at xda but the mods locked it because some asshole didn't stop asking the dev for Etas. Screw that guy.
Any help would be welcome! Thanks!
Hi, there will probably be an update to fulmics 6.0 which should solve overheating problems. I'd recommend for you to move to Cloudy G3 2.5 or XenonHD with aCC kernel just for now.
I also have problems with heating. When the phone is at direct sunlight for some time it become irresponsible. I mean it don't reboot but message pop up "system ui stopped ....." and screen lock. I wonder if fulmics ROM is the reason for that. As far as I remember upon installation I choose stock settings, kernel.
Update! : This morning, I went out and the phone got literally unusable. Constant bootloops. Sometimes getting to see the wallpaper but after a couple of seconds, before the whole system boots, rebooting again. The temperature today is quite lower than the previous days and the phone sure didn't feel that hot on the back (power button is my thermometer). Back at the hotel, I tried to backup in order to wipe data and see if it's a data corruption issue. I had to try a couple of times to backup because the phone would reboot half way. I finally made it to the point where I reinstall the rom, before wiping, and the phone would reboot while fulmics was getting installed. I then remembered reading somewhere about the possibility of being a fubar battery, so I plugged the thing to the wall: instant fix. No more reboots. I even restored the backup without any reboots. Booted the rom perfectly. Let it load. Open pokemon go, see it works. Unplug from the wall and in less than twenty seconds: reboot.
Now, I'm on twrp without performing any task and saw my phone lose 30% of the battery in 45 minutes just sitting still. So yes, my bet is on a broken battery.

My G2 acted like this when the battery died. Its a sure sign

So, my phone only boots when it's been in the freezer for about 20 minutes. It will work until it warms up, then freezes.
I tried many batteries. No change. It's almost like if a video card had bad thermal paste/faulty fan. Any ideas?
Boot to recovery and set a timer, if it doesn't freeze then try a new kernel
